Primary muscles: Abdominals
How to do it
- Take a slightly wider than hip distance stance with your knees slightly bent.
- Place your right hand on your right hip to support the spine.
- Raise your left arm in a vertical line and place your left hand behind your head. Keep it there as you incline your torso to the right.
- Keep your weight evenly distributed between both legs (don't lean into your left hip). Switch sides.
